The effect of nonequilibrium air chemistry on skin friction and Stanton number and the applicability of the reference temperature method and Reynold's analogy for such conditions was investigated. The nonequilibrium laminar boundary layer equations were solved on a flat plate geometry for different Mach numbers, altitudes and wall to edge temperature ratios. A correlation of a modification to the reference temperature method is made for application in the presence of nonequilibrium dissociated air at hypersonic speeds. 17 refs.
